Diplomat

Live to work, work to live
No time left to spend or give
Walking like a bureaucrat
Talking like a diplomat

Always looking into their eyes
Firm handshakes, quick replies
Push the product, sell the crop
Climb that ladder to the top

But what if it's not meant for me?
I can't stand the symmetry
My head is stuck inside the clouds
But I can see clearly now

I'm trying to find the means to living more passionately
Cause I'm not who I wanna be
Buried in routines, I don't care what happens to me
I just gotta get free

I am no proprietor
That that to my dear father
Taught me everything he knew
About nothing that I wanna do

Earned awards, honors, degrees
I couldn't find myself in these
So I took my car keys and ID's
And threw them in the ocean

Now, all of the world is laying right before my eyes
I wonder why the hell it took so long for me to recognize

I'm trying to find the means to living more passionately
Cause I'm not who I wanna be
Buried in routines, I don't care what happens to me
I just gotta get free
